• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

HU! another Russian scenery

A vision of Hell...half a million peasants poured into a town layout gone berserk under the mantle of a Stalin Five-year Plan, living in noxious fumes and smoke...

Think the magnetic anomaly might've been mined out by now.
 
I don't suppose it was much worse than Pittsburgh at its height or for that matter many a Brit city during the Industrial revolution.

In the words of the Yorkshire saying - Where there's muck there's brass.

Thanks Pete for the heads up.

Ive never heard of the place. I guess they are known then for 'Magnets' judging from the name...
